Main event

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Duja Eru (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergio Morais (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Eru might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Will To Win. The crowd seem to be enjoying Morais's choice of entrance music: Apaga mas não bate . Duja Eru had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
